Brunell Update

There has been no recent phone call from Atlanta to the Redskins.

Spoke to numerous people who would know if there had been. There hasn't.

The Falcons called once about Mark early in camp and were told the Skins had no interest in dealing him. Since then, even in the aftermath of the DJ Shockley injury, nothing. Also, spoke to personnel people with a number of teams who all said that they have heard nothing about the Redskins shopping Brunell - no phone calls, no faxes, nothing.

Like I wrote earlier today, I get the sense that the Skins would heavily consider trading Mark for a draft pick, but there is not likely to be much interest out there, and I hear the Falcons are in no rush to make a deal now so late in camp and will look to see which QBs are cut in another week.

Not saying Mark won't go there, or someplace else at some point, just saying that Day Late Dave appears to be at least several days/weeks early on this one.
